No, it says "...notify us by replying to this message and deleting it from your computer..."

That says you have to do two things to notify them: reply and delete, which is nonsense.

What they *mean* is almost certainly "Please notify us by replying to this message, and delete it from your computer..."

That's two different actions: notifying and deleting, which is logical.
